Life Changing Movie #4

philadelphia.

i would imagine there's the potential to tick off a lot of people...but i have to say that sometimes it's good to be a little uncomfortable. sorry, it just is. why?...so the heart can get bigger, go deeper...so that we can evaluate how much we really do represent the heart of jesus to those around us...and if we even really know how his heart beats...

what did i get out of this movie?? in a day where much of "christianity" felt (and still feels) impressed to be behavior moderators as defenders of truth (before even asking what god may want in a particular situation), i felt a profound invitation...and now conviction...to live a different life. i understand it today as a call to live a life marked by intimacy with god (still imperfectly, i know. work in progress.)...a life that asks first that we might all consider getting to know (or falling in love with) the greatest romancer of all in jesus...and live a life that values and defends the truest things about who we are...that we all might someday embrace our deeper identities as found in him.

sure, some might say that i'm whacked in the head...or that it's just my conviction...maybe so...but for this gal??..."a person is a person is a person is a person..."

and that's where i want all of my interactions to begin...
